that the case was not one % murder or rob-

ease In his chair and fell from It, knocking the
chair and stove down in his fall. There were
no other injuries on his body, except a contu-
sion on the back Of his head that Is net thought
sufficient to cause death. 1t is thought that
Mrs Miller, who was but one year younger
than her husband, was too weak-rninded to
notify the neighbors OF her husbands death,
and that her weak and exhausted condition Is
due to starvation, as she was unable to pro-
cure Or cook food for herself. Her husband
was accustomed to do all the marketing, cook
ing and other household work. The old
couple had little communication with their
neighhors.

A Terrible EXPLOSION.

ROCHESTER,, n. Y, December 21.-About
half-past o'clock this afternoon a terrific ex-
plosion occurred in front of the Poole -four mill
on Mill street, at the foot Of Factory street.
The explosion was felt for long distance.
Only few seconds after the first explosion,
another followed and another, and another, in
rapid succession. Instantly flames burst from
the Poole mill and the rear walls fell in. The
fire burned with great fury and although the
wor5men fastened to get out, it is feared some
must have persisted in the flames.
1t was only q few minutes before Washing
on mills, adjoining the burning structure, was
also on fire. The cause of the explosion was
that sewers in the vicinity were filed with
naptha. Today 1900 gallons of naptha were
pumped from the Vacuum Oil works through
a pipe line in the bed of an old canal. 1t was
intended for tho Municipal gas company, but
breaks i'll the line
ALLOWED NAPTHA TO ESCAPE
into adjoining sewers. When the sewers be.
came surcharged with gas it escaped into the
mills and exploded there, and afterwards into
sewers in the streets, throwing out manhole
covers and tearing up roadWayS. The amount
of damage cannot be calculated at this hour
Two or three of the finest mills in the city
with their contents. are doomed, and several
streets and sewers are more or less damaged.
In the vicinity of the fire and up Mill and
State streets, as far as Market street, dis
lance of about three-quarters of a mile, people
were running in every direction and the fire.
quent explosions terrified them more. The
explosions continued at such frequent inter-
walls for the first half hour that the people
were deferred from getting anywhere near the
fire. 1t is not known how many persons were
at work or how many escaped. One man was
seen to
JUMP FROM A sEcoND-sToRY WINDOW
of one OF the buildings to the river bank be-
low, distance of fifty feet. His right leg
was broken and he received severe internal in
juries.
The walls of Jefferson mill fell in about 4
o'clock, and it is feared there are sew
eral men buried under them The engineer
OF Clinton mill, with two companions, were
standing near the front of the mill when the
explosion occurred. They retained sufficient
presence of mind to shut off the steam and
get out of the mill. Six persons were at work
in the Clinton mills, four of whom escaped
through the water wheel.
AT the time of the present writing, s(i2 30
p. m.) the fire is under control, but the de-
partment will keep at work at least until
morning. The explosions ceased about $50
o'clock, and no more danger Is apprehended
from them. The explosions covered wide
extent of territory. Windows were
shattered in many buildings in the
vicinity, za.aa the shock was felt over large
area.
The tunnel through which the burning
naptha flowed for several hours is the largest
sewer in the city, and is the outlet for sewers
ON the west side How badly damaged this is
cannot be estimated. The fire must have had
the start of several hundred feet in the
sewers.

Outrageous Conduct OF a Baltimore ard
Ohio Engineer,

CHICAGO, December % An incoming Bal
timore and Ohio train plowed at full speed
through a crowd boarding an Illinois Central
suburban train at Van Buren, station last eve
ming. Fully 200 people were thronging the
tracks at the time. and without whistle OF
note OF warning, the train was upon them. In
an instant Miss Lottie Laurecrville was
thrown fifteen or twenty feet and fatally in
jured. Immediately after the accident the
Baltimore and Ohio train backed up and had
barely stopped, when the cab was boarded by
an Infatuated crowd of persons who had mar
row!y escaped death. The engineer was
roughly seized and cries of Lynch hint"
"Kill him. were shouted from hundreds of
Threats. Just in time to prevent the crowd
from executing its threats two central detail
officers arrived and rescued the covering man
from the throng Of avengers. The engineer
was quickly spirited away and his name could
not be learned. There seems to be no excuse
for the accident. The Baltimore and Ohio
train was going at full speed when it should
have been at stand. There was no sound of
q bell or whistle to warn the crowd of APP
preaching danger.
